Chapter 235 Chaos
Chapter 235 Chaos
Su Chengnan walked to the door with a frown on her face. Her heart was in great pain, but she still tried her best to remain calm.
No matter how big the problem is, if she messes up, the Su family will be in chaos.
At this moment, Uncle Fu rushed in front of her and scolded her, "Why are you so panicked?! Are there any rules?"
Su Chengnan stepped forward and said in a steady voice, "What happened? Tell me slowly and clearly."
The guard's face was pale, he was breathing heavily, and he pointed towards the courtyard wall anxiously and said, "Outside...outside!"
The guard couldn't wait for him to start hesitating, so he answered first: "The city is in chaos. We're not sure if someone has sneaked in to cause trouble, or if there are guilty officials rebelling. In short, the city's officers, soldiers, prisoners, and civilians are all in chaos, and there are sounds of fighting and killing everywhere."
When everyone heard this, they immediately fell into panic, and a feeling of unease quickly spread...
"How could this happen?!"
"Are we safe here?"
"Oh my God, are they going to rush in and kill people?!"
Su Chengnan's face changed slightly, and an ominous premonition surged in her heart, but she forced herself to suppress her emotions and said to everyone:
"What are you panicking about? Calm down!"
After Su Chengnan yelled at them, everyone quieted down instantly.
Su Chengnan's eyes swept over the crowd, and his voice was filled with unquestionable determination: "Gangzi, take your men to the backyard and guard the gate first. Be careful that no one will climb over the wall and cause trouble during the chaos!"
"Yes, Miss!" Gangzi took the order and immediately left with several secret guards and some servants.
"Fatty! Take some people to guard the front yard! Close the door for me."
"Don't worry, miss. I guarantee that not even a fly can fly in!" The fat man patted his chest and rushed forward with his men.
After Su Chengnan finished giving the order, she took a deep breath and turned to look at Qingshan. Her voice was low and urgent: "You have a special status. You should go to the City Lord's Mansion as soon as possible to see what happened. Be careful!"
Qingshan clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Miss, I'll go right away!" After that, he flew onto the roof with his lightness skills and left quickly.
Seeing this, Bing San comforted Su Chengnan and said, "Miss, there's such a big mess, but Second Brother hasn't come back yet. He must have found the key person. Let's wait patiently for a while. I believe he will come back with news soon."
Su Chengnan nodded with a serious face, "If there is civil unrest in the city, our safety can still be guaranteed. We are afraid..."
"Second brother has always been prudent in his work and will definitely return safely."
Her heart was pounding, and that bad premonition became stronger and stronger, almost like a shadow that followed her everywhere and could not be shaken off.
The Su family's life had just started to get better, and before they had time to prepare anything, chaos started happening again! They really didn't give her any time at all! Really!
Su Chengnan clenched his palms and shouted, "As long as we guard the house well, we will definitely be able to get through this safely!"
"Yes!" everyone answered in unison.
Then Su Chengnan glanced at everyone and his eyes fell on Su Linhua.
"Second sister!"
"Sister, if there is anything I can do, just tell me!" Su Linhua said with excitement in her eyes, eager to try.
"Look at how much oil is left in the kitchen? There's a barrel in each of the front and back yards."
"Okay, I'll go right away!" Su Linhua nodded, then grabbed a few people around her and left, "Come and help! Hurry up."
"Yes, second lady."
The sound drifted away.
Su Chengnan continued to arrange other people.
"Everyone else, hurry up and get some water! Make sure there's water near every wall!"
"Ah? Why is that?" someone asked in confusion.
Uncle Fu patted the man on the back of his head. "Miss, you have to be on guard against people outside setting fire to the yard! We also have to be on guard against people climbing over the wall!"
"Ah, that's right."
Su Chengnan hurriedly added, "No one is allowed to hold anything in their hands. No matter what it is, as long as it can hurt someone, take it! Do you hear me?"
"I heard!"
Everyone scattered like birds and beasts and started to move.
"Uncle Fu, you and Fatty are responsible for the front yard together. You must follow the instructions of the secret guards in all operational matters! You must manage the servants, stay calm and keep quiet!" Su Chengnan looked into his eyes and said very seriously.
"Okay, I understand, and I won't hold you back!" He naturally understood the importance of the matter, and naturally wouldn't cause trouble at this critical juncture.
"Come on, some of you go get some water, and some of you follow me to prepare weapons! Hurry up, hurry up, run!" Uncle Fu waved at the others.
"Yes, and keep quiet, don't shout!"
"it is good!"
After everyone was busy, Su Chengnan took Bingsan away.
"Miss, should we...?" Bingsan asked tentatively.
"I'm going to the carpentry workshop in the front yard now. Liuzi has made some preparations. Go to Mr. Sun and ask him to bring the children to the middle yard first."
"it is good!"
Su Chengnan took a few steps and then suddenly stopped!
"Wait!" She hurriedly called out to Bingsan.
"What's wrong, Miss?"
"Quick, send a few more people to pick up the Liang family!"
"Uncle, right?"
"Correct!"
"Okay, I'll do it myself."
"Well, don't worry about Mr. Sun. Go quickly and be careful! Your life is important too! Don't get hurt."
"Okay." Bingsan grinned!
While Su's house was making preparations, the city of Ningguta was already in complete chaos.
……
Qingshan walked all the way south, walking on the roofs, avoiding many people's obstruction, but because of this, he could see the situation in the city more clearly.
This is not civil unrest!
The thieves from the White Bear Country have sneaked in and are wreaking havoc in the city!
The city was engulfed in flames and billowing smoke.
The people fled in all directions, and the sounds of people crying and shouting were everywhere.
"Help!"
"Killed!"
"You bastards, I'm going to fight you!"
Such sounds came one after another, continuously.
Qingshan felt complicated. Everything was normal in the city yesterday. How could there be such chaos overnight?
Moreover, the guards in Ningguta have always been strict. Even if you take out the token, you can only avoid the other party's malicious harassment and expulsion. When the Su family entered the city, they had to go through several checkpoints before being allowed in!
So how did these thieves' machetes get in? They definitely couldn't be brought in by hiding them in something!
Could it be that there is someone in this city colluding with them?
When Qingshan thought of this, he was shocked!
not good!
I'm afraid of this city lord's mansion?
He stopped and hesitated on the roof for a moment, then continued running decisively in the direction ahead.
Even if there was something wrong with the City Lord's Mansion, he had to go and see what was going on! This would remind Miss Su how to be on guard.
